BeardedSteven Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 And my box is here. So far so good. It does come in that pizza box thing with the regular box inside of that. Flip open box with the LPs inside. The box is numbered but on the shrink on the box. Not sure how useful that is but it is numbered. I got #1230/1500. I opened the first 2 and the sleeves seem good. Not super heavy but not cheap feeling at all. Printed inners. No splits on the seems, packaging was ok. No idea how the originals are to compare. The LPs seem more gold than bronze to me but they look good. Flat and heavy no scuffs. Haven't spun them yet but they look ok. I'm ready to start playing them!

itsgoodtobefree Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 In regards to Amazon, has anyone ever got a release date guaranteed order that was cancelled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfalcons Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 In regards to the Amazon listing, has anyone ever got a release date guaranteed order that was cancelled? No news about Amazon.it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfalcons Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 according to my record store, Italy will only get 25 copies...too bad Do you know how many copies has received or will receive amazon.it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simple_torture Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 In regards to Amazon, has anyone ever got a release date guaranteed order that was cancelled? Do you mean like any order ever? Hmm...I don't think so. Just did a quick e-mail search and everything that I've ordered that had "guaranteed" in the e-mail eventually arrived. Only weird one: ordered Nick Cave+BS "Boatman's Call" and it was guaranteed to arrive 12/23/14. I ended up canceling that order and after I cancelled, the release date was taken down and now they're not taking orders for it. So I guess they could always do that to you.

itsgoodtobefree Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I was just curious because it seems oddly confident of them to place a guaranteed delivery date for something they don't know if they will receive. I think with past orders, like the Sun Kil Moon 3rd and Seneca for instance, I never received a guaranteed date, but an estimated date before it was cancelled.

fish Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I never even got an estimated date for the 3rd & Seneca release from Amazon. And my RHP amazon order says it will arrive on the 21st but it doesn't say "guaranteed" like some of my orders do. So I will actually be amazed if they get any of these. Also B&N cancelled my order a couple hours ago saying that they couldn't get any (no surprise there). But hopefully that means shops will soon know if and how many they will be getting. I know i got an order in real early through Acoustic Sounds so I'm thinking they are my best bet. Or maybe Bullmoose but i got that one in towards the end.

On the bright side, someone's going to order 100s of dollars worth of electronics on your credit card this weekend. Not you, but someone.

thesewoodenideas Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Amazon UK cancelled.Same here. Ah well was a nice dream. It's a pity 4ad has screwed over UK fans by forcing them into RSD for this and not even letting UK residents try to buy from 4ad online. Black represses it is then :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
